Chapter 1066: Chapter 1073: Do You Still Want to Hit Me? (Part 1)
Bai Xingye recently emerged from a setback.
After coming out of it, he severed all ties with Chen Bainan and others.
No matter how gullible he was, after all those events, he saw through Chen Bainanâs character.
Besides, his family had become much stricter in controlling him.
Any friends he made had to be repeatedly confirmed and investigated before being allowed to hang out with him.
For instance, if any friends had some unsavory past, Bai Zhenyang or even Master Bai would step in to make them leave.
Although Bai Xingye felt somewhat resistant, he learned his lesson this time and didnât strongly oppose his dad and grandpaâs interference.
He still understood that family would always be family and wouldnât harm him.
As for Bai Bing, his sister, he was even more fearful and cautious, a habit formed since childhood.
Towards Lin Xi, however, he felt an indescribable sense of admiration.
Especially after Lin Xiâs various turnarounds, helping his sister, and after learning some things about Lin Xi.
So now he turned his previously dislike into extreme admiration for Lin Xi.
Of course, he also found out that his sister was living with Lin Xi.
Otherwise, he would have sought out Lin Xi long before this.
He never expected, never expected, never expected to see his brother-in-law Lin Xi in a place like this.
"Brother-in-law, itâs me, Xingye!" Bai Xingye immediately rushed over from afar.
From the looks of him, he seemed to want to give Lin Xi a hug but thought better of it after some consideration.
To be honest, he was still a little afraid of Lin Xi.
"Xingye?" Lin Xi thought for a moment; the stylishly dressed young man in front of him seemed somewhat familiar.
It felt like he had met him somewhere before.
But he couldnât recall immediately.
Beside Bai Xingye were three other young men, also dressed very fashionably, and judging by their clothesâ brands, their family backgrounds were undoubtedly significant.
While they might not compare to the Bai family, they were at least from prominent families in Chuzhou City.
"Young Master Bai, your brother-in-law?" one of the young men asked with a puzzled expression.
Young Master Baiâs sister was Bai Bing, wasnât she?
Bai Bing was considered the goddess of the entire Chuzhou City, even a national goddess; after all, her beauty was absolutely breathtaking.
There had never been any news about Bai Bing having a boyfriend or husband.
Everyone believed she was always single.
The main reason he hung out with Bai Xingye was in hopes of attracting Bai Bingâs attention one day.
Otherwise, he wouldnât play with Bai Xingye at all.
In his eyes, Bai Xingye was just a kid, and a pretty stupid and naive one at that.
Bai Xingye nodded, didnât pay him much mind, and continued to look at Lin Xi excitedly, "Brother-in-law, donât you remember me? Iâm Xingye!"
"You and my sister came to the Bai family; you have met me before, and after that too..."
Alright, Lin Xi finally remembered.
So it was this kid, no wonder he looked so familiar.
What he hadnât expected was that the kid was still as naive as before.
Of course, that time he was quite devastated and took a while to come out of the shadows.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Xi frowned.
If it werenât for Bai Bingâs sake, he wouldnât have bothered with this kid at all.
In his mind, this kid was just a silly one, the kind who would count money for someone who had scammed him.
Bai Xingye seemed completely oblivious to Lin Xiâs expression as he pointed to the direction he had come from, saying, "There are quite a few luxury cars over here, so Iâve been hanging around here lately. Of course, mainly because I love racing!"
"By the way, brother-in-law, let me take you over to have a look!"
"If you like any of them, Iâll give it to you!"
With that, he started walking forward.
Lin Xi asked the two little ones beside him, and they nodded immediately.
Evidently, from their expressions, it was clear that they were far more interested in the cars Bai Xingye mentioned than in the RV.
No matter how expensive or luxurious the RV was inside, compared to those modified and sports cars, its exterior still looked too shabby.
Just as he was about to follow Bai Xingye with the two little ones, the young man who had previously questioned Bai Xingye looked unhappy and pulled Bai Xingye back, "Young Master Bai, are you saying he is your brother-in-law!"
"Is he your sister Bai Bingâs man?"
Bai Xingye looked puzzled, "Yeah, Brother Liu, is there a problem?"
"And even if there is a problem, letâs talk about it later. I need to take my brother-in-law over there to check out the cars now!"
However, when he tried to pull his hand out from the young manâs grip, the man didnât let go.
The other two who had come with Bai Xingye also didnât look too pleased, but their eyes were mostly drawn to Mengmeng and Qiaoqiao now.
"Brother Liu, whatâs wrong with you?"
At this point, even if Bai Xingye was slow, he sensed something was off.
Lin Xi wasnât in a hurry; after all, those cars didnât really interest him.
He was rather interested in what was happening before him.
After all, no matter what, Bai Xingye was his brother-in-law.
It seemed like his brother-in-law had made friends with the wrong kind of people again.
Honestly, it wasnât really his fault, because even his dad and grandpa hadnât seen anything wrong with this Liu guy, and even thought befriending him was a good thing.
In fact, this Liu guy had no scandals, or maybe he was smart enough not to leave any traces if he did bad things.
"Whatâs going on?" The guy named Liu got angry, "How dare you ask me whatâs wrong? Your sister appears pure and untouched, never having had any affair with any man!"
"I never thought she already had a man!"
"Turns out sheâs no different from those cheap floozies!"
"Donât look for me anymore in the future. If it werenât for your sister, I wouldnât bother with a wimp like you!"
With that, he turned to leave.
The two young men nearby ignored this Liu guy and instead patted Bai Xingye on the shoulder, "Young Master Bai!"
"Why not introduce those two girls beside your brother-in-law to us?"
"If you introduce them to us, weâll pretend nothing happened with your sister, and weâll hang out with you in the future!"
Upon hearing what these three said, Bai Xingye was stunned at first, as if he couldnât believe they would say such things.
Then, once he processed it, he was instantly furious.
Even if he didnât have much courage, his family was an untouchable taboo for him, especially his sister. Though Bai Bing had always been stern with him, his feelings for Bai Bing were even stronger than for his parents.
At this point, he ignored the two who had patted him on the shoulder and instead shouted, "Liu, stop right there!"
This Liu guyâs name was Liu Ge.
His family owned a well-known local business, which still fell far short when compared to the Bai family.
However, his family had an uncle who was an influential leader in Chuzhou City.
So, even the Bai family had to give them some face and sometimes maintain a good relationship; of course, if there were any conflicts of interest, the Bai family wouldnât be afraid.
He stopped and turned to look at Bai Xingye, "Kid, youâve got some nerve, daring to shout at me?"
"Do you intend to hit me or something?"
